Baklava Story
Absolutely worth the trip. The baklava is made to order, incredibly fresh, and honestly some of the best I’ve had. You can taste the care in every bite — perfectly flaky, balanced sweetness, and rich flavor. DO NOT get fooled by the humble storefront.
The owner was so welcoming and offered us a sample as soon as we walked in, which immediately set the tone. Friendly, kind, and clearly passionate about what they do.
If you’re in San Francisco and love baklava, do not miss this place. I promise it’s worth going out of your way for.

This is a production facility dedicated exclusively to pre-order pickups. The owner is a true perfectionist, obsessed with precision, quality, and clinical cleanliness.
In reality, this is an open science lab where food is prepared with surgical accuracy and genuine love. Visitors can observe the process: sheets of silky, paper-thin dough layered with care, fillings placed with exactitude, and trays baked in state-of-the-art controlled ovens. Even the syrup is measured to the milligram on digital scales. Throughout it all, the team is happy to smile and pose for your selfies.
The “pickup only” model exists because the owner is adamant that you receive the product at the absolute peak of freshness. He doesn’t just ask—he practically commands—that you never store his baklava in the fridge. He treats the preservation of his craft so seriously you might expect a written contract or a mandatory course before you’re deemed “worthy” of his desserts. He will tell you exactly how many days it stays fresh: No freezing. No refrigeration. Just share it with those you love. In fact, his golden rule is simple: never share a slice of baklava with someone you don’t love.
Approach the counter without hesitation; you will be greeted with an infectious smile, a sample, and precise instructions on how to experience it. The technique: Turn the piece upside down, sink your teeth in, and let the crisp flakes fall onto your tongue like snowflakes onto a leaf. As your taste buds awaken to the buttery, sweet, lingering sensation, hold onto the railing—it’s that good.
By now, you have been entrusted with a tray. If it has cooled to optimal levels, it will be wrapped for you. However, if you arrive while it is still warm, you are strictly instructed to keep it ventilated. Do not leave it in a car with the windows up; the humidity will compromise the structural integrity of the flakiness.
I have seen the best of the best, and this ranks among them. Become part of the narrative at Baklavastory. Learn, love, and be merry.

Walking into Baklava Story felt like stepping straight into Gaziantep. The taste, the aroma, the texture everything was exactly as I remember from my childhood. One bite and I was instantly transported back home. The baklava is perfectly balanced, rich but not overly sweet, incredibly fresh, with that authentic pistachio flavor that is so hard to find outside Turkey.
Beyond the amazing desserts, the place itself is spotless and beautifully organized. You can tell they care about quality and presentation as much as they care about taste. The staff is warm, friendly, and genuinely passionate about what they do.
San Francisco has many dessert spots, but Baklava Story is in a different league. If you want real, authentic Turkish baklava made the right way, this is the place. I will definitely be coming back again and again. Highly recommended.

The best baklava in town, it’s even better than the one in Turkey. I like the pistachio baklava and you need to call them ahead to place your order. Great service and great baklava, it is light and not too sweet. Highly recommended

This is hands the best baklava I have ever had in the US!!!
Just got back from Istanbul and this is even better and more fresh than anything in Istambul. 100% worth coming here
I would suggest calling and putting in your order before coming. They only sell boxes to go and not individually

Wow, the baklava here is amazing. It’s fluffy and crispy and gooey without being overly sweet. It also smells fantastic. Came here because a Turkish friend recommended it to us.

Hole in the wall place but best baklava I’ve had. They handed it to us literally right out of the oven, so you’ll get something fresh no matter what time you come. They give you generous sample sizes because they know you’ll love it.
Besides the food, there’s a great story to this place, with the owner (who is very down to earth btw) having studied how to make the best baklava for years. This store is the embodiment of what Bruce Lee said: “I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times”

This is hands down the best and most authentic baklava I’ve ever had! It’s fresh, perfectly balanced in sweetness, and absolutely delicious. Both flavors were incredible—I’m still thinking about them until today!
The staff was super friendly and accommodating. He taught me and my wife how to eat it up side down! They even offered us a free taste, which made the experience even more special. If you’re looking for high-quality baklava in San Francisco, this is the place to go. Highly recommended!
